I believe that in life, we all want to be the very best versions of ourselves. However, along the journey of life’s path we often find ourselves off course. Sometimes, it’s due to reasons we contribute to. Sometimes, it is due to outside influences. Sometimes, it is due to reasons we have no control over. I believe therapy is the process of working with an individual, to help put them back on this path and work towards the best version of themselves. In our daily lives, we are faced with challenges; however, it is the way in which we respond to those challenges that helps us find success in our own mental health.

My ideal clients are teens and adults who feel like they've been swimming upstream — often without knowing why. Many are navigating ADHD or Autism, carrying the weight of years spent masking or misunderstood. Others are processing trauma, chronic anxiety, or a life transition that's left them unsteady. What they share is a readiness to understand themselves more deeply and a desire for therapy that meets them where they actually are — not where they "should" be. They want real tools, genuine connection, and a space where their whole self is welcome.

You are a person who has the capability to be very self-reflective and contemplative of why things are. You might be the kind of person who grows through epiphanies. You would be less likely to increase your self-worth gradually over time by placing affirmation cards on your bathroom mirror. Instead, through self-reflection and communication you have fairly drastic shifts in your outlook of the situation. One thing you might hear from me more in a session than most therapists is "I don't know". Because often I don't and anyone who seems to know the answers all the time is full of shit.

Sleep or Insomnia Therapists
How effective is treatment for insomnia?
The most effective treatments for insomnia are behavioral techniques that reduce anxiety, including anxiety about falling asleep, and allow the body’s natural cycles to be recalibrated. The most common treatment is cognitive behavioral therapy for insomnia (CBT-I), which researchers have found to be more useful than medication, with rates of success as high as 80 percent.

Are there specific medications for sleep problems?
There are many medications, both over-the-counter and prescription that treat sleep problems. Supplements such as melatonin are popular and may help, though there is little evidence that it is more effective than a placebo. Prescription medications such as zolpidem are sometimes prescribed.

Are there natural treatments for sleep problems?
There are many natural treatments for everyday sleep problems. Reducing blue-light emitting screens, setting a regular bedtime, regular exercise, reducing caffeine and nicotine consumption, and keeping the bedroom dark and cool at night are all lifestyle changes that can help those who struggle with sleep but may not reach the level of an insomnia diagnosis.

What’s the difference between having trouble falling asleep and insomnia?
Life events, stress, and anxiety can lead to sleepless nights for everyone from time to time. To be diagnosed with insomnia, a patient must experience trouble falling asleep, trouble remaining asleep, waking up too early, or non-restorative sleep at least three nights per week for at least one month. Sleep problems affect one-third to one-half of the population, while chronic insomnia affects about 10 to 15 percent of people.
